Can assignment tests measure dispersal?
Individual‐based assignment tests are now standard tools in molecular ecology and have several applications, including the study of dispersal. The measurement of natal dispersal is vital to… Expand
Temperature Sex Reversal Implies Sex Gene Dosage in a Reptile
- Alexander E. Quinn, A. Georges, S. Sarre, F. Guarino, T. Ezaz, J. Graves

Sex in reptiles is determined by genes on sex chromosomes or by incubation temperature. Previously these two modes were thought to be distinct, yet we show that high incubation temperatures reverse… Expand
The ends of a continuum: genetic and temperature‐dependent sex determination in reptiles

An individual's sex depends upon its genes (genotypic sex determination or GSD) in birds and mammals, but reptiles are more complex: some species have GSD whereas in others, nest temperatures… Expand
Foxes are now widespread in Tasmania: DNA detection defines the distribution of this rare but invasive carnivore
